Commit 406f42fa0d3c ("net-next: When a bond have a massive amount
of VLANs...") introduced a rbtree for faster Ethernet address look
up. To maintain netdev-&gt;dev_addr in this tree we need to make all
the writes to it got through appropriate helpers.

Pull Kbuild updates from Masahiro Yamada:

 - Add -s option (strict mode) to merge_config.sh to make it fail when
   any symbol is redefined.

 - Show a warning if a different compiler is used for building external
   modules.

 - Infer --target from ARCH for CC=clang to let you cross-compile the
   kernel without CROSS_COMPILE.

 - Make the integrated assembler default (LLVM_IAS=1) for CC=clang.

 - Add &lt;linux/stdarg.h&gt; to the kernel source instead of borrowing
   &lt;stdarg.h&gt; from the compiler.

 - Add Nick Desaulniers as a Kbuild reviewer.

 - Drop stale cc-option tests.

 - Fix the combination of CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS and CONFIG_LTO_CLANG
   to handle symbols in inline assembly.

 - Show a warning if 'FORCE' is missing for if_changed rules.

 - Various cleanups

====================
wireless-drivers-next patches for v5.15

First set of patches for v5.15. This got delayed as I have been mostly
offline for the last few weeks. The biggest change is removal of
prism54 driver, otherwise just smaller changes.

Major changes:

ath5k, ath9k, ath10k, ath11k:

* switch from 'pci_' to 'dma_' API

brcmfmac

* allow per-board firmware binaries

* add support 43752 SDIO device

prism54

* remove the obsoleted driver, everyone should be using p54 driver instead

Delete/fixup few includes in anticipation of global -isystem compile
option removal.

Note: crypto/aegis128-neon-inner.c keeps &lt;stddef.h&gt; due to redefinition
of uintptr_t error (one definition comes from &lt;stddef.h&gt;, another from
&lt;linux/types.h&gt;).

<title>intersil: remove obsolete prism54 wireless driver</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit 1d89cae1b47d ("MAINTAINERS: mark prism54 obsolete") indicated the
prism54 driver as obsolete in July 2010.

Now, after being exposed for ten years to refactoring, general tree-wide
changes and various janitor clean-up, it is really time to delete the
driver for good.

This was discovered as part of a checkpatch evaluation, investigating all
reports of checkpatch's WARNING:OBSOLETE check.

p54 replaces prism54 so users should be unaffected. There was a one off chipset
someone long ago reported that p54 didn't work with but the reporter never
followed up on that. Additionally, distributions have been blacklisting prism54
for years now.

hostap has a combination of iwpriv ioctls that do not work at
all, and two SIOCDEVPRIVATE commands that work natively but
lack a compat conversion handler.

For the moment, move them over to the new ndo_siocdevprivate
interface and return an error for compat mode.

<content type='text'>
In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time
field bounds checking for memcpy(), memmove(), and memset(), avoid
intentionally writing across neighboring array fields.

Validate the expected key size and introduce a wrapping structure
to use as the multi-field memcpy() destination so that overflows
can be correctly detected.

<title>treewide: remove editor modelines and cruft</title>

<content type='text'>
The section "19) Editor modelines and other cruft" in
Documentation/process/coding-style.rst clearly says, "Do not include any
of these in source files."

I recently receive a patch to explicitly add a new one.

Let's do treewide cleanups, otherwise some people follow the existing code
and attempt to upstream their favoriate editor setups.

It is even nicer if scripts/checkpatch.pl can check it.

If we like to impose coding style in an editor-independent manner, I think
editorconfig (patch [1]) is a saner solution.

<title>proc: mandate -&gt;proc_lseek in "struct proc_ops"</title>

<content type='text'>
Now that proc_ops are separate from file_operations and other operations
it easy to check all instances to have -&gt;proc_lseek hook and remove check
in main code.

Note:
nonseekable_open() files naturally don't require -&gt;proc_lseek.

Garbage collect pde_lseek() function.
